Footstep Recognition for a Smart Home Environment
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper reports some experiments which assess the potential use of a footstep biometric verification system for a smart home environment. We present a semi-automatic capture system and report results on a database with independent development and evaluation datasets comprised of more than 3500 footsteps collected from 55 persons. We present an optimisation of geometric and holistic feature extraction approaches. An equal error rate of 13% is obtained with holistic features classified with a support vector machine. The database is freely available to the research community.

Estimation of Indoor Physical Activity Level Based on Footstep Vibration Signal Measured by MEMS Accelerometer for Personal Health Care Under Smart Home Environments
A smart home environment based on pervasive networkedsensors enables us to measure and analyze various vital signals related to personal health care. For example, the vital signals on footstep, gait pattern, and posture can be used for assessing the health state among the elderly and disabled people. In this manuscript, we use footstep vibration signals measured by network-based MEMS accelerome...

A smart home environment equipped with pervasive networked-sensors enables us to measure and analyze various vital signals related to personal health. For example, foot stepping, gait pattern, and posture can be used for assessing the level of activities and health state among the elderly and disabled people. In this paper, we sense and use footstep vibration signals measured by floor-mounted, ...
متن کاملFusion of Footsteps and Face Biometrics on an Unsupervised and Uncontrolled Environment
This paper reports for the first time experiments on the fusion of footsteps and face on an unsupervised and not controlled environment for person authentication. Footstep recognition is a relatively new biometric based on signals extracted from people walking over floor sensors. The idea of the fusion between footsteps and face starts from the premise that in an area where footstep sensors are...
